Overthinking is the biggest cause of our unhappiness. Keep yourself occupied. Keep your mind off things that don't help you. Think positive.

The following photos are my own, which I took with my cellphone. I took these photos in a beautiful Montreal park. You can click on any image to see a larger view.


I have no idea what this was, but I wanted to take the photo.

Again, I don't know what these were, but I found them pretty.

  5. ...Linda, you assembled a wonderful collection, but "In a nation of sheep, one brave man forms a majority," jumped out at me. This sums up things here!!!

  6. I found your photos very interesting, Linda! The first one is like a scarecrow, can be scary coming across it at night! (I watch too many horror movies!). The second photo looks like a green brain! Or an alien life form (again too many movies. LOL!) Is it growing on a tree? And the last one, those plants that look like roses, I believe they are a type of cactus? Very pretty. I also love today's quotes especially the first one. I love cats!

    The Muppets! Mahna Mahna always makes me smile. Thanks!
